Pros and cons - being a meteorologist
Where do you live, and what part of the country would you like to go to
school in? What are your school experiences (high school,
college,etc.)? Do you just want to be a meteorologist just to be on
TV, or do you want to really study weather and do research? David
Letterman was a TV weatherman.
Do you have any particular area of weather you're interested in? A lot
of people are interested in severe weather (hurricanes, tornadoes and
severe storms, lightening, etc.). Others are interested in computer
modeling for forecasting. Each school will have strong points and
areas of specialty. In addition, due to the location of some
colleges/universities, local federal or civillian agencies offer
internships for college students. Again, what they do depends upon
where they are located. Tell us more about wat you want to do as a
meteorologist.
